# 🎨 Draw-and-Understand: Leveraging Visual Prompts to Enable MLLMs to Comprehend What You Want

The interaction between humans and artificial intelligence (AI) is a crucial factor that reflects the effectiveness of multimodal large language models (MLLMs). However, current MLLMs primarily focus on image-level comprehension and limit interaction to textual instructions, thereby constraining their flexibility in usage and depth of response. Therefore, we introduce the **Draw-and-Understand project**: a new model, a multi-domain dataset, and a challenging benchmark for visual prompting.


## Training and Eval Dataset Card

- MDVP-Data is a comprehensive dataset for multi-domain visual-prompt instruction tuning. This dataset encompasses data for both point-level and region-level understanding, designed to enhance a model’s comprehension ability and robustness.

- Based on MDVP-Data, we also introduce MDVP-Bench, a challenging benchmark designed to evaluate tasks that require a combination of detailed description referrals, inter-relationship analysis, and complex reasoning.
